I joined InfluxData as a Developer Advocate because I discovered my love for data through a meandering path that led me to Biotech labs, where I worked with robots and realized I wanted to work with data. After attending a bootcamp for Data Analytics and Visualization, I created a dream job checklist that included exploring data, learning about various things, being surrounded by kind nerds, and improving my communication skills. When I learned about InfluxData, it checked all of those boxes, offering a wide range of use cases applicable in almost every industry, allowing me to analyze time series data creatively and share my analysis with others.
